PictureCorrect.com: Interesting Photo of the Day: Touching the Milky Way

The Milky Way has long captured photographer’s hearts — and been captured itself. Shooting it, or even landing the right conditions to, is no easy feat, though. So, when photographer slash iOS developer Guillermo Gutierrez saw the opportunity to do so, he grabbed it. Or should we say, his wife did (literally)! The photographer shared the unique snap he took of his wife seemingly “invoking” the power of the Milky Way:

“ITAP of my wife and the Milky Way” by Guillermo Gutierrez (Via Reddit. Click image to see full size.)

As hinted by the depth of color, clarity, and the number of stars in the sky, the image is a long exposure. What makes it truly interesting is the battery-powered LED bulb his wife holds. Out of which, the Milky Way seems to “shoot” like a lightning bolt. Of course, he didn’t get the perfect shot in one go, nor was it easygoing for his SO.

…to make sure the lightbulb aligned with the Milky Way, it was a trial and error process… she was suffering and didn’t want to do it, but I’m pretty sure that if I invite her again, she will come…

For this shot, Guillermo used his Sony A7 III mirrorless camera body and Sigma 14-24mm f2.8 lens. He also employed a tripod — an absolute necessity for long-exposure photography, along with a slower shutter speed of 30 seconds. For his other settings, he set his lens to 14mm with an aperture of f2.8 and ISO 6400.
